The event will be held on January 15 and 16, 2025, at the Andrew J. Brady Music Center in Cincinnati, Ohio. Dynamite will air live on January 15 on TBS in the United States, while Collision will be taped on January 16 and will air on tape delay on January 18 on TNT, also in the United States. Both shows will also be simulcast on the streaming service Max globally.[2]
